id: 10047134

1️⃣ Spend your free time together.
Relationships are the exchange of experience with each other. So time spent together builds rapport, especially if the time spent was enjoyable for both you and the dog.

2️⃣ Speak commands clearly.
Confusion and misunderstanding are the enemies of a good relationship, so always communicate clearly and in the same way with your dog. Be consistent with signal training. Dogs tend to remember visual cues faster than verbal cues. Dogs always pay more attention to what we do than to what we say, which means we have to pay attention to what we do when interacting with them. You will always have good contact if the understanding between you improves.

3️⃣ Feed your dog well.
The way to the heart for many dogs is through the stomach. Not only does your dog's health depend on quality food, food for your dog has a positive effect on relationships.

4️⃣ Train your dog.
Well-trained dogs tend to have more freedom. If the dog is well suited to you, he gets more time in the free state, without a leash. Training also reduces frustration because when you ask your dog to do something, he knows what you want.

5️⃣ Play with your dog.
The scientists noted that parents who play with their children have the closest relationship with them, and this is also true in the relationship between humans and dogs. By playing games you strengthen the bond.

6️⃣ Always stay calm.
Loss of self-control and screaming can disrupt everything in the immediate vicinity of an emotional person. No matter what happens, you should make your dog feel calm, not arouse him.

7️⃣ Study the theory and practice of dog behavior.
Learn more about canine behavior, especially body language and dog expressions that show stress. When you can identify the signs that your dog is restless or scared, it will be easier for you to protect him or keep him out of trouble. If your dog can count on you, the trust between you will be better.

8️⃣ Pay attention to the likes and dislikes of the dog.
By knowing your dog's preferences, favorite games, and foods, you can give him what he really wants and be a source of great things for him. Likewise, you should keep track of what your dog may not like in order to keep him from doing so.

9️⃣ Pet your dog.
There is strong evidence that physical contact, such as grooming and petting, reduces stress in dogs, as measured by a reduction in heart rate and stress hormone, as well as an increase in anti-stress hormone. Physical contact plays a big role in enhancing the bond between humans and dogs.

🔟 Love your dog.
The dog will surely serve you faithfully and love you if you sincerely love him.
